06x01 - Denise: The Saga Continues

[bunniefuu]

Cliff, What Are You Doing?

Ah...

The Door Is Scraping
When It Comes Through

So I'm Rehanging It.

Don't You Think You Should
Call A Carpenter For That?

Why Is It Every Time I Fix
Something In This House

I Hear The Voice
Of Doom From Clair?

Who Says, "Don't You Think
You Should Call A Carpenter?"

"Don't You Think You Should
Call An Electrician?"

"Don't You Think You Should
Call The Plumber?"

Don't You Realize

If It Had Not Been
For The Effort

My Effort,
All These Years

This House Would Have
Fallen Apart.

And I Think
I Deserve Some Credit.

A Pat On The Back,
If You Don't Mind.

Okay.

Denise, Do They Know
I'm In The Navy

And At Sea For
Weeks At A Time?

No, But Don't Worry,
Dad's An Old Navy Man.

He'll Eat That
Right Up.

So, Baby, You Nervous?

Yes.

It's Not Everyday A Man
Meets The Parents Of His Wife.

That's True, But Don't
Worry, They'll Love You.

Course, No One Could
Love You As Much As I Do.

All Right.

Well?

Well.

Let's Go.

Martin, Hold It.

There's Something Else

My Parents Don't Know About You.

You Didn't Tell Them
I'm Divorced?

Right, Right.

Honey, Don't Worry.

They'll Either Accept It
Or They Won't.

That's A Good Attitude.

I Know, Come On,
Let's Go.

Um, Baby?

Um...

There's One More Thing
They Don't Know About You.

What?

You.

They Don't Know About You.

I Beg Your Pardon.

I Just Sort Of Forgot
To Tell Them I Got Married.

You Were Going To
Let Me Go In Here

And Meet Two People Who
Don't Even Know I Exist.

And Then Say, "By The Way,
I Married This Guy."

Yeah, Something Like That.

There You Go.

All It Needed Was
A Little Fine Tuning.

Just Close It Up

And Watch It Swing Through.

You Just Have To Wait
Until The Humidity Goes Down

Because This Is All Swollen.

It'll Be Fine.

Now Look, If You Have
A Problem

Remember, Just Do Like This.

(Door Slamming)

Denise, My Baby!

How Are You Doing?

Fine.

I Missed You So Much.

It's So Good To See You.

How Was Africa?

Do You Bring Pictures?

Girl, You Are Skinny.

Oh, Please.

I've Got To Feed You.

Look At You!

Hey.

Hey!

What Are You Doing Home?

We Didn't Expect You Back
For Another Week.

I Know, But...

A Friend Got Me A Flight,
So I Took It.

We Would Have Picked You Up
From The Airport.

He Dropped Me Off.

Where's Your Luggage?

My Luggage.

I Wanted To Talk
To You About That.

The Airline Lost It.

Was It Stolen?

No, Someone's Watching It.

You Didn't Leave It
With A Stranger?

Of Course Not.

I Know This Person.

Really Well.

Anyway, Where's Rudy?

Where's Vanessa?

They Went To The Mall.

That's Too Bad.

Where's Theo?

Moved Out.

Praise The Lord.

He Found An Apartment
In The Village

With A Couple Of Other
Students From N.Y.U.

Now, Pudd, Where's
The Luggage?

That Was Expensive Luggage.

Dad, The Luggage Is Fine.

Come And Sit Down.

Your Father And I
Need To Talk To You.

Yes, Yes, Yes.

We Want To Talk.

The Whole Time
That You Were Gone

We Were Thinking And
Thinking About You.

And We Want You

To Please Hear Us Out.

Okay?

First, We Are Really
Proud Of You

For Sticking It Out
In Africa.

That Must Have Been
Quite An Experience

And I'm Sure
You've Grown From It.

And You're Probably Thinking
About What To Do Next.

Actually, I Want To Talk
To You About That.

I Talked To The President
Of Hillman.

And She Said You Can
Come Back Any Time You Want.

Mom, Dad...

I'd Like To Talk To You

About The Guy Who's Watching
My Luggage.

Come On, We're
Talking About...

No, Dad.

Yes?

He's Wonderful.

Good, Good.

His Name Is Martin.

Fine.

And, Dad, He Graduated
From Annapolis.

And, Uh...

He's A Lieutenant
In The Navy.

A Navy Man.

Can't Go Wrong
With That.

You'll Have To Bring
Him By Sometime.

I'd Love To.

Soon, I Hope.

You Two Sound Serious.

We Are.

We Got Married.

So I'm Talking About

What You Need
To Do Is

Even If You
Don't Want...

Cliff, Stop!

Stop, Cliff, Stop, Stop!

I'm Talking To Her...

This Child
Just Said

She Is Married.

Who Said That?

Yeah, I Got Married.

You Know, Tied The Knot.

(Humming "The Wedding March")

Da-Dun-Da-Da?

Denise, You Got Married
Without Telling Us.

Yeah, I'm Married.

Aren't You Happy For Me?

Da-Dun-Da-Da?

Cliff, I Need To Speak To You

In The Kitchen.

Denise Is Married

And I Don't Even
Know Her Last Name.

Mrs. Stupid.

When We Let This Child
Go To Africa

She Was Supposed To Come Back
More Mature

More Responsible.

How Can She
Pull This?

No Call, No Letter, Nothing.

Just Shows Up,
"Hi, I'm Married."

We're Supposed
To Be Happy?

I Have A Nerve To Take
That Child By Her Arms

And Shake Her.

Aren't You Going
To Say Something?

Come On, Cliff.

Come On.

Hello.

Here We Are.

Mr. And Mrs.
Kendall.

Dr. Huxtable.

Mrs. Huxtable, A Pleasure
To Meet You Both.

Denise Has Told Me
So Much About You.

I'm Sorry We Can't
Say The Same About You.

Martin, Please,
Sit Down.

Yes, Ma'am.

Isn't He Something?

Isn't He Beautiful, Huh?

I Realize This
Is A Bit Awkward

Especially When You've Just
Heard Things About Me

You Might Find
Troubling.

What Troubling Things?

I'm Sure You Were Concerned
When You Heard

I Was Divorced.

You're Divorced?

You Didn't Tell Them?

I Was Getting To That.

Mom, Dad, It's Just One
Of Those Things That Happen.

Martin's Ex-Wife Wasn't
Mature Or Focused.

She Didn't Know What She
Wanted Out Of Life.

She Was All
Over The Place.

So He Married You?

That's Right.

I Suppose I Also Have
To Tell Them About Olivia.

Is That Another Wife?

That's My Three-Year-Old
Daughter.

That's My New
Stepdaughter.

Well, Where Is She,
In The Luggage?

No, Sir.

She's With My Parents Now.

We Can't Wait For You
To Meet Her.

Isn't This Fantastic?

Mom, I'm A Mom.

Kitchen.

Well, Forget College.

Forget Everything.

"Mom, I'm A Mom,"
She's Not Prepared.

What Is Going On In Her Mind?

How Is She Going
To Support A Child?

Where Will They Live?

Not Here.

You Two Are Spending
A Lot Of Time In Here.

You're Being Sort Of Rude
To Your Guest.

He Is Your Son-In-Law.

Denise,
Sit Down.

Your Father And I Didn't
See Your Life

Unfolding In This Way.

Look At Him.

You've Turned This Man
Into An Invalid.

Yes, You.

When You Returned From Africa

You Were To Go Back
To College, Get A Degree

Then Get Married
And Have A Family.

Just 'Cause That Worked For You

Doesn't Mean It's Right.

Please, Nobody's Saying
Your Way Is Wrong.

Wrong.

Wrong.

No, No,
Hush, Now.

It's Wrong.

No, No.

Wrong.

Mom, Dad, I Know
The Path I May Have Chosen

Is Gonna Be Difficult.

But I Don't Care,
I Know It's Gonna Be Okay.

You Know Why?

I Found Love.

Love.

There's So Much Love Between
Martin And Me

And Olivia And Me

I Know Whatever Comes Up

Love Will See Us Through.

That's How Strong Our Love Is.

Please Stop All This
Love Talk For One Minute.

Now Where Is

This Child's Mother

And Where Will You Live?

Not Here.

Olivia's Mom Realized She
Wasn't Mature Enough

To Raise A Child

So She Gave Custody
To Martin.

And We're On A List
For Housing

At Martin's Naval Base
In Rhode Island.

How Long Is This Waiting List?

They Say We Should
Have A Place To Live

In A Year.

Dad, We Don't Want To Live Here.

It Would Help Us
If We Could Stay Here A While

Until We Get An Apartment.

That Way
You Guys

Can Get To Know Martin
Before He Ships Out.

He's Shipping Out?

He's Leaving Next Week
For Three Months.

And You Have Not Found
An Apartment

For You Or Your Stepchild
Whom You'll Be Raising.

Alone.

Mom, It's Gonna Be Okay.

I Know I Can Raise This Child.

Maybe I'll Go Back To College.

I Don't Know.

Maybe I'll Join
The Navy With Martin.

Anything Is Possible.

You Know Why?

Because You've Found Love.

That's Right.

Come On In, Olivia.

Honey, This Is The House
Where Denise Grew Up.

I Played With
My Dolls Here.

Bathroom?

Down The Hall.

Do You Have To Go?

No, I Want To Know
Just In Case.

Okay.

Mom, Dad...

The Kendalls Are Home.

I Have Someone
I'd Like You To Meet.

Oh, Martin,
She's Adorable.

Isn't She, Cliff?

She's Too Short.

You Must Be Olivia.

Uh-Huh.

I'm Three And A Half.

I'll Be Four Next Month.

I Hope I Can Come
To The Birthday Party.

You're Invited.

Olivia, This Is
Denise's Father.

His Name Is
Doctor Huxtable.

And How Are You?

I'm Fine.

Do You Have A Job?

No.

Then I Guess I Can't Get
Any Money Out Of You.

I Have Money.

You Do?

How Much?

I Have A Lot.

You Can Have Some
If You Want.

I Know This Is Not
One Of My Children.

And You Can Stay For Dinner
If You Like.

Thank You, But...

I Don't Eat Red Meat.

Do You Eat Ice Cream?

Yes.

Well, I Have
Bad News For You.

Because There Is Red Meat
In Ice Cream.

No Way, Jose.

Here, I Have Something

You Can Play With
Whenever You Want.

Thanks.

This Is My Favorite.

A Teddy Bear.

Not Just Any Teddy Bear.

It's Bobo.

Bobo Teddy Bear.

Whenever You Have A Problem,
Tell Bobo.

He Understands.

Okay, I Will.

You're Going To Like It Here.

It's A Fun Place
If You Know What To Do.

How Will I Know What To Do?

I'll Tell You.

For Instance, If You Want
Something From My Mom

Never Do Any Whining.

What's Whining?

You Know, When You Do This.

"Please, Please, Give Me
More Of That, Please."

Okay, What Else You Got?

Now, My Dad.

He Can Be Tough.

Never Wake Him Up
When He's Taking A Nap.

And Whenever He's Around,
Start Reading A Book.

He Loves That.

I Don't Know How To Read.

Fake It, You'll Score Big.

Okay.

Now, Vanessa Just Turned
Sixteen.

She's Getting Weird.

Avoid Her.

Okay.

Any Questions?

What Should I Know
About You?

Just Do Whatever I Tell You

And We'll Get Along Fine.

Okay.

We're Back!

Hey, Miss Bugaboo.

Did You Have
A Good Time?

Yes, But Hide-And-Seek
Makes Me Hungry.

Want A Peanut Butter
Sandwich?

Yes, Please.

Okay.

Denise.

Yes?

I'll Have Mine
On Toast

With Lettuce,
Bananas And Jam.

Kenny, This Is Not
Your House.

If You Want A Sandwich,
You Make It Yourself.

Yeah, Tell Him, Sis.

I'll Just Have It
With Peanut Butter.

You're It.

Hey, Theo,
You Here Again?

Yeah, I Came By

To Visit Denise
And The Family.

You Came By
To Eat Our Food.

Yeah, That, Too.

Give Me These.

I'll Put Them
In The Kitchen.

Cliff, You're Such
A Good Husband.

Well, Thank You
Very Much.

Oooh.

Peanut Butter,
I Need Turkey!

(Loud Confusion)

Chill, Chill, Chill!

Thank You, Thank You.

Go Look In The Kitchen, Please.

Now What
Do You Think?

I Think We Need
A Bigger Refrigerator.

Come On, I'll
Buy You Dinner.

Are We Coming Back?

Yes.

After Rudy's Graduated
From College.

Vanessa Was In Here.

Oh, Really.

She Complained

There's Too Many People
In The House

And Then Demanded
To Use Our Bathroom.

Did You Tell Her To Get A Job?

Thank You.

Is Denise In Bed Yet?

Yeah, Think So.

I Hope Everything Is All Right
In There.

You're Worried?

Yes, I Am Worried.

The Child Is Across The Hall
With A Man And A Baby.

She's A Baby Herself.

Denise Doesn't Know
What She's Doing.

Did You See Her
At The Table?

Did You See Her Cut
That Broccoli For Olivia?

Those Pieces Were Way Too Big.

When She Wasn't Looking,
I Cut That Broccoli Myself.

I Hope She Put Enough Covers
On Olivia.

It's Chilly Tonight.

Okay, Let's Go.

Thank You.

You're Going To Knock First?

Anybody Give Me Any Rent Money?
